Smith added Jordan will name him to disagree with issues he stated on-air, and whereas he’s not as aggressive about it as Kobe Bryant was, he’s “candid.” “I don’t assume he’s going to be shy about saying what he sees—in any respect,” Smith concluded. “As a matter of reality, if he’s, he’s going to need to take care of me as a result of I’m going to be in his ear telling him, ‘You’re getting shy now. That’s what we’re doing? That ain’t the MJ I do know!’” Elsewhere within the section, Wager-David referenced web rumors that NBC is paying Jordan $40 million yearly. A source tells Front Office Sports that this number, which is about twice what Charles Barkley makes per year from TNT, is inaccurate. NBC declined to comment.
